Solve it pls.

Air at free-stream velocity of 8 m/s flows over a thin flat
plate of length 5 m and width 1 m. A lamirar boundary layer
develops from the leading edge of the flat plate. At Re, = 800
000, the boundary layer becomes a turbulent boundary layer
where x is the distance from the leading edge.
pair = 1.2 kg/m', lair = 1.8 x 105 kg/m.s
(a)
Estimate the length of the laminar boundary layer.
(b)
Estimate the drag force due the laminar boundary layer on
one side of the flat plate.
(c)
Wall shear stress atr= 5 m.
